Wouldn't it be great if you could control your business travel spending, before the money was spent? With Concur Travel Request, you can ensure planned travel is approved before ticketing, whether booked online or directly with travel agents.
Now your employees can easily update travel dates, purpose of travel and cost of a trip. After the details are entered and saved, they are sent to the respective managers for approval and can be routed for additional approval based on your company's policies. Managers can approve travel requests from their smartphone or tablet device, speeding the process along. Employees can also request a cash advance as part of the travel request process, enabling all approvals to occur simultaneously. When the required approvals are complete, the booking is released for ticketing, or the travel agent is notified to finalise the trip. With Concur’s Spend Request, you can ensure planned expenses are approved before the actual spend takes place.
Concur® Travel Request gives organizations the ability to improve cost control, increase policy compliance, streamline travel planning and and take the pain out of expense reporting for employees and managers. The process ensures that information efficiently flows between a travel request, an online travel booking tool and ultimately into an expense claim. This makes it easy for your employees to get approvals on the trip plan; saves their time and improves back- office reporting. The travel agency can also be integrated into the travel planning and approval process and automatically alerted once travel is approved. By combining a travel request with an expense claim, travel managers can quickly and easily reconcile their monthly invoices from their travel management company, instantly determining which line items should be paid.
Concur® Travel Request is available as a stand-alone service or with our products Concur® Travel, and Concur® Expense.
